    Booking Bounce back without checking in??

    I don't think so because they'd be able to tell that you hadn't checked in so they wouldn't allow the booking. Believe me, one of the blocks for Free Dining BB ends the day we arrive on June 6th. I'm so tempted to try and find a way to get down there for one night to save a bundle of money next...

    No more lunch adr beaches and cream??

    I had an ADR there for lunch this coming Tuesday at 1:20. Maybe they are dropping them for trips next year, but I booked this lunch one about a month ago.

    2017 Disney Princess Half Marathon Weekend

    Thanks. This is good to know. I'm wondering if pricing things out myself will be cheaper. Is it that difficult to get registered for the 10K if I'm online right before it goes live/

    2017 Disney Princess Half Marathon Weekend

    I'm just getting back into running after taking a long break and doing other types of fitness. I ran the Wine & Dine 5K through Animal Kingdom with my family in 2011. It was an absolute blast. Now I'm looking at either the Princess 10K, which I know I could finish, or the 1/2, which would be my...

    (CLOSED) Disney's WILDERNESS LODGE and VILLAS INFORMATION THREAD ~2014~

    Our room was 5019 which I guess is the North side of the resort. Our view was not at all affected by the scrims that were up. Also, from the ground, I felt like it was very unobtrusive. Sure, you couldn't walk that path from the lobby out by the waterfall, but overall it did nothing to detract...

    Official Poly construction update thread **updated video page 103(2/17/15)**

    We just returned very early this morning from WDW. The Poly is a mess right now. We actually stayed at WL but went over to the Poly for dinner one night (and have stayed there previously so we can tell what's different). The lobby is essentially completed blocked off into one narrow hallway that...

    (CLOSED) Disney's WILDERNESS LODGE and VILLAS INFORMATION THREAD ~2014~

    We just returned very early this morning (like 1 am) from 8 nights at WL Courtyard view. We were the Flag Family yesterday, 7/8/2014 and got some inside scoop from the Ranger who led us up to the roof. As of yesterday, the scrims were still up in the courtyard for the Waterfall rehab, though...

    Anyone been to Ohana recently?

    We ended up cancelling our ressie for the 4th of July because the chicken skewers were our favorite. That combined with the fact that both our girls (13 and 10) qualify as adults and only one will eat anything besides bread, we decided to ditch the reservation. We are doing a category 2 at Hoop...

    Orbitz & MagicBands

    We are leaving at the end of the month (about 17 days from now) and we got our magic bands last week. I got the notice they were shipping one day and the very next day I got an email saying they were sent out along with a tracking number.

    California Grill-Appetizer meal

    Thanks for all the replies. The goat cheese appetizer tip is great too. I can see my 10 year old being really excited for that. She loves ravioli and goat cheese, so the two together will be heaven on a dish for her! Can't wait for July now.

    California Grill-Appetizer meal

    I am considering California Grill for our upcoming trip this summer. I was wondering if it anyone has ever eaten there and gotten mostly appetizers/salads, and maybe split an entree. It's not so much a money issue, as much as the foods outside of the entrees are what interest us. No one in my...

    Thanks for checking, don't feel the need to keep looking ;) I was just curious if it might be something that you had happened upon.

    Any trouble adding kids onto Orbitz reservations?

    Make sure they have your children's names spelled correctly. I didn't have them read them back to me when I spelled them for the Orbitz agent, and my oldest's showed up spelled incorrectly on MDE. It was another phone call and wait to get it corrected--but now it's all good.

    The MURPHYS are LIVE from the BEACH CLUB (3/24-3/31) Now at the CONTEMPORARY ;)

    If you happen to notice while you're out and about could you tell me if there are any "Frozen" character charms that could be purchased to put on the Magic Bands? My daughters are dying to know!

    Orbitz 15% off summer discount rates

    How do you know your ADRs will cancel? Mine are all still listed on MDE. I haven't called Disney Dining yet, but I guess I could. What I did was add my Orbitz reservation to my account before I called Disney to cancel my room only reservation that I had with them. My Dining reservations remained...

    Any trouble adding kids onto Orbitz reservations?

    The only thing I still wonder about our my dining ADRs. They all still show up with a credit card guarantee in my MDE, but I saw one poster said that they would have to call Disney to relink the dining reservations with the new Orbitz room reservation. I am hoping that there's no more calling to...

    The MURPHYS are LIVE from the BEACH CLUB (3/24-3/31) Now at the CONTEMPORARY ;)

    I love your live TR's. So excited to follow along--and Happy Birthday! How is the cake? We are going over the 4th for a 8 nights at WL and I wanted to order a cake for my DD's 11th birthday. Not sure what type to get. We are a family of 4. Do you have any recommendations? I've already read...

    Little Mermaid Rooms/Free Dining/Room Location?

    I will say this about AOA, it really felt almost like a deluxe hotel. When we stayed at ASMu a few years back we did feel like we were giving some things up, but AOA is pretty awesome. The theming is amazing, the feature pool is great, the food court had lots of tasty options. ASMu felt like...

    Help! I can't add my kids to my Orbitz reservation :(

    I made my reservation and got my kids added today. Orbitz called Disney directly while I was on the phone with them. This was around 9 am EST Sunday (today).

    Little Mermaid Rooms/Free Dining/Room Location?

    The walk is not bad, but our kids are older--the only time it might be an issue would be in rainy weather. We were however located very close to the end of the building that is closest to the food court. I guess if you were all the way down the far end it might start to feel a little further...
